Description
Recently, Electro-Magnetic Root Canal Therapy (EM-RCT) has been proposed as a treatment method for apical periodontitis. Although temperature analysis has been performed in previous studies on this treatment, it has not fully reflected the actual physical properties. Therefore, the authors conducted an analysis that takes into account the phase transition of the saline solution filling the root canal and the coagulation of blood filled in the lesion, and compared the intracanal temperatures when EM-RCT was used. The results showed more realistic temperatures in the tooth, indicating that reflecting these physical conditions is essential for accurate temperature analysis.
